Kaolin-kefalin time is a sensitive review test used to evaluate coagulation.
Importance of the test: differential diagnosis of hemorrhagic diathesis, control of heparin treatment, control of hemophilia A and B replacement therapy, preoperative screening for coagulopathy.
Time prolongation: deficiency of single clotting factors, coagulopathy from wear and tear, heparin/hirudin treatment, acquired lupus anticoagulant.
Time shortening: may be an expression of hypercoagulability.
